Mr. Craik Hendersonasked the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that large cylindrical containers are being filled and placed upright near road blocks to be used in closing the gaps in the case of an emergency; what is the weight of these containers when filled; and whether any experiments have been made to ascertain how long it would take to place these containers in position?
§ Mr. LawThese containers are sufficiently heavy to fulfil the purpose for which they are required, and there is no difficulty in placing them in position. I do not think it would be desirable to give further details.
